The People reports that Arsenal want Artur Boruc to succeed Jens Lehmann at the Emirates Stadium.

Arsene Wenger is said to be considering a £6m offer for the Celtic goalkeeper before the transfer window shuts and sources at both clubs confirm talks have taken place.

Sunday Mail Kilmarnock have taken two defenders on trial with a view to offering them permanent deals.

Houssein Marega, a left-back, and Bruno Fernandez, a centre-half, will spend a week at Rugby Park while Jim Jefferies assesses their respective abilities.

News of the World say that the Senegal-born defender Ibrahim Tall wants a move a way from Hearts because he is homesick and that French side Strasbourg are reportedly interested in signing the player.

Tall met with Vladimir Romanov last week to ask for a transfer and said: "I don't want to leave Hearts for any other reason; it would be better for my family to live back there France."

The same paper reports that the Clyde defender Neil McGregor is being targeted by Carlisle United. The League One side are prepared to pay £100,000 for McGregor, who started his career at Kilmarnock.
